Melt chocolate and butter in top of a double boiler over a pan of simmering water. Remove from heat. Stir in salt and whisk in egg yolks one at a time. Add 1/3 of the powdered sugar and whisk until mixture is smooth.

In a separate bowl, beat egg whites with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until they are beginning to hold soft peaks. Increase speed to high and add remaining powdered sugar. Beat until glossy and stiff peaks form. Add about 1/4 of the egg whites to chocolate mixture, whisking until blended. Add remaining egg whites, folding just until blended. Pour mixture into ramekins. The batter should almost come to tops of ramekins.

Place ramekins in refrigerator for 30 minutes. Remove ramekins and cover each with plastic wrap. Place back in refrigerator for up to 24 hours. If you want to keep them for longer than 24 hours, freeze them.
